are you sure these are trapped rotors because i just looked it up and the 94 civic is showing regular pop on and off rotors, there is no need of a press of any kind. and if it has trapped rotors and you did use the slide hammer to get hub off, you still dont need a press, they are bolted on. look closer at the rotors and get back to me, take a picture and upload it if you can. i cant recall exactly what set up the 94 has i would need to see it.

Hello,

The rotor on this civic is not pressed on the hub.
If it is stuck on the hub after removing the bolts, then it is likely seized on the hub.
Simply tap the rotor with a hammer or mallet and it will come loose.

I have attached the replacement procedure for the rotors as well as pads for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
